#2522 added support for globstar globbing (**/*) to extra-source-files and related fields; however the patch had some issues and wasn't merged. We should revive and finally merge it for the next Cabal release.

@hvr told me that GHC 8 final will likely be delayed until the end of March, so maybe we'll have time to get this in.

These are inspired by a plan described in a comment in haskell#2522, and only
implement a quite limited form of recursive matching: only a single **
wildcard is accepted, it must be the final directory, and, if a **
wildcard is present, the file name must include a wildcard.

Or-patterns are not implemented, for simplicity.

Closes haskell#3178, haskell#2030.
